The X series has long been one of the Elite games in the space sim genre, giving you huge universes to play in as you explore, fight, build and fly through the beautiful, desolate space.
X Rebirth is the latest game to come out of the series, and expands yet again on the previous game, with cloud cities and sun stations to explore; if you meed the X Rebirth System Requirements...
X Rebirth Minimum System Requirements
OS: Windows XP 64bit
CPU: Intel Core i3-2100T 2.5GHz or AMD Phenom 9850 Quad Core
RAM: 4GB System Memory
GPU RAM: 512MB Graphics Memory
GPU: GeForce 450 GTS or ATI Radeon HD 4870
DX: DirectX 9
HDD: 6 GB Free Hard Drive Space
X Rebirth Recommended System Requirements
OS: Windows 7 64bit
CPU: Intel Core i5-2300 2.8GHz or AMD Athlon II X4 760K Black Edition
RAM: 8GB System Memory
GPU RAM: 1GB Graphics Memory
GPU: GeForce GTX 560 Ti or ATI Radeon HD 5870
HDD: 10 GB Free Hard Drive Space
Well, those are some hefty requirements, but if you look at how gorgeous the game is it's no surprise! Needing a modern quad core and 4GB of RAM to even start, low end PC's won't be playing this one.
X Rebirth has been announced with a November 15th release date, so you've got three months yet to drool over footage like this:
Are you guys long term X series fans? Are you desperate to fly around gorgeous cloud cities? Tell us below!

This kills the computer.

Oh, how so?
PC Specs
not yours but his.

This kills the man.

Is it just me or games have started not only using more ram, but also using more CPU (processing) power, just like they did prior to 2007? :D (this isn't really great as it increases the cost of our upgrades, but it might turn interesting in a few years if less powerful gpu will be need)
PC Specs
by the way, this game seems slightly more optimised for AMD/ATI cards and AMD processors too, interesting!
PC Specs
I think we will actually have to wait a while before we start seeing a lot of games with Ivy bridge i5 in recommended... Remember that Core 2 Quad Q6600 and Phenom 9750 and their kin released back in 2007-08 but we saw lots of games with those in recommended only 2010 onward (Hello Metro)...
PC Specs
That's for certain (or shall i say hopefully?)!
Besides, this is quite a heavy game, with a huge world, and the optimisation might be better than the requirements may lead to
PC Specs
This is true... But even though this game has hyped up system requirements, one thing is for sure; lower end PCs are nonetheless screwed...
PC Specs
Prepare your PC's anus for this game
PC Specs
Mine is lubed up and ready to go.
Is yours? ;)

I remember having a hard time trying to run X3 on my rig back in the days :D
PC Specs
Funny
Because history repeats itself with the new title, your inferior pc will have a hard time again :p
PC Specs
We shall see :D
PC Specs
... said the blind man, before bumping into a wall.
PC Specs
If a game like this would exist in an anno 1700 Caribbean setting I would quit my job and never leave the house again.
PC Specs
What do you do for a living anyway...? I'm an auditor by the way...
PC Specs
Auditor for what? To me an "auditor" sounds a lot like a tax inspector ;)
I'm a project manager for a construction company.
PC Specs
I'm working as an auditor in training with a private firm... Once I finish this training and pass the CA final exam, I will be a full fledged chartered accountant...
PC Specs
Damn nice jobs lowly geologist (in training, though i do have a current contract with Clark Mine 1yr) here xD you guys probably will make twice what i do (after all expenses tuition etc) congratulations on the success and i pray for your continued prosperity :D
PC Specs
How exciting it must be to be a geologist in the middle of the Mojave desert :p
1st day on the job "I can professionally confirm that this is a desert and the ground is made of sand, so that's it for me today and every day to come" :p
Just kidding. Mining is cool. And I reckon a geologist working for a mining company can make a lot of money if he played his cards right.
PC Specs
Yeah if i can manage to get hired for a few consecutive years and get my Master's I should be set for awhile at least xD, it does get a bit drab, and being so new "Green" means you get the "yeah let's listen to the young punk, but in all reality, just neglect/reject every idea this guy has" attitude, that's always fun :/, but i got to actually hold AN ULTRA-MAFIC IGNEOUS ROCK (nerd-gasm :P) totally worth it :D
PC Specs
Being the green guy is an issue in every profession.
Of course you don't have the experience of the others, but if they're not total idiots they realize that and they should give you a chance to learn. In my job I'm often confronted with having to take charge of new teams of workers everyday. My tactic is always to target the leader of the new group of colleagues and make sure I get a good professional relationship with him by showing that being the green guy also has its advantages. Get their leader on your side and the others will follow swiftly.
Being young generally means you're more in touch with recent technologies and a good portion of enthusiasm.
Play those out and you'll be a part of the team in no time.
PC Specs
Epic advice!!! thanks this will definitely help ;) my relations with the boss-man, but unfortunately my co-workers are not so kind,I guess time coupled with your advice should help, with my actual inclusion of Clark's internal projects, again thank you very much!
PC Specs
Glad I could help. It would have saved me a lot of problems if someone said that to me when I first started ;)
Also, I don't know what kind of colleagues you have, but in the construction world people tend to talk a bit roughly.
Especially to the new guy. It's important that you show you can take it. Don't get angry, don't be offended. If possible, laugh along with them. For example, among the workers I am known to "bite back" so to speak. Mostly, among men, being quick on the draw with your words is a trait ;)
PC Specs
Great another game with hyped up system requirements... Granted those recommended specs seem legit looking at those graphics as well as the render distance, but those minimum specs are just ridiculous...
PC Specs
I'm going to be playing this game for a VERY long time :)
PC Specs
agreed but can i play it?
PC Specs
Yes, probably at med-high settings...
(if the optimization is good)
PC Specs
You might be able to get high settings, depending on your resolution.
PC Specs
if i have it in 1080 no aa?
PC Specs
Looks pretty cool depends on if you need online or you can enjoy it by yourself if I buy it, not into mmo styles.
PC Specs
the X line is single player to date
PC Specs
look nice game , great graphique hope my bitche can run this :p
PC Specs
This looks great
PC Specs
agreed
PC Specs
Yeah, but the requirements are a bit high. Lets hope for a good optimization.
PC Specs
they are not really that High though recommended is only a low-mid range cpu and a mid range GPU
PC Specs
then my laptop must be really low end, since the CPU and GPU minimum requirement both exceed mine completely :/
PC Specs
****ing finally.I've been waiting for this game since 2009.About damn time there is a release date.
PC Specs
first 2013 game that both my processor and GPU fail...good thing I'm hopefully getting a new PC this fall, this game seems really good.
PC Specs
I like the way Bernd Lehahn thinks...definitely got me interested in the game. Seems like a sandbox/rpg/space shooter hybrid, so I hope to see more of the game soon. :)
By the way, new trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNs1rdSkUi8
PC Specs
never heard of this game but wow it looks really good!!i think my old baby will be able to run it but i must save money for an entire new system :)
PC Specs
You have a really good rig,not the most powerful in the market,but still really strong and well balanced.Why would you want to buy a new one anytime soon?
PC Specs
well games become heaviest and heaviest so i sould save money to buy a new rig when this one becomes not enough for modern gaming.my target is to buy a hole new little beast 2 years from now :)
PC Specs
560ti or 5870 usually we see 560 alongwith 6950 :P
PC Specs
Holy sh*t, finally!
PC Specs
It's the first time that my cpu doesn't meet at least the minimum sytem requirements O.o
PC Specs
Will I be able to run this game ???
PC Specs
I don't think so well that's what I think.
PC Specs
Oh sweet jesus, first time I've seen a quad core as minimum requirement :O.
PC Specs
Thats a first generation phenom quad core. its a rather weak quad.
